Steam iron Rowenta DX1635

The Rowenta DX1635 steam iron combines a stainless steel soleplate with up to 2400 W power to deliver effective wrinkle removal across a range of fabrics. Designed for domestic use, the iron incorporates a 0.25 L water tank and a 2 m power cord to provide flexibility during ironing sessions. Its vertical steam function allows steaming garments on hangers and refreshing curtains or drapes without needing an ironing board.

Advantages

The stainless steel soleplate ensures smooth gliding and uniform heat distribution, reducing the need for multiple passes. High-power operation shortens heating time and improves steam output for more efficient ironing. The 2 m cord increases reach and manoeuvrability around the ironing area, while the compact 0.25 L water tank keeps the appliance lightweight and easy to handle. A vertical steam option adds versatility for quick refreshing of hanging clothes and soft furnishings.

Suitable for

• Regular home ironing of shirts, trousers and blouses
• Refreshing hanging garments and curtains using vertical steam
• Small to medium-sized laundry loads where quick heat-up and steam are needed
• Users who prefer a compact iron with a long cord for easier manoeuvring

When it may not be suitable

The Rowenta DX1635 has a relatively small 0.25 L water tank, so it may require more frequent refilling during extended ironing sessions or for very large households. It is intended for domestic use and may not meet the demands of professional or continuous industrial ironing where larger water capacity and heavy-duty construction are required.

Key specifications

• Power: up to 2400 W
• Soleplate material: stainless steel
• Water tank capacity: 0.25 L
• Vertical steam function: Yes
• Cord length: 2 m
• Colour: Brown/white accents

How to use

Fill the water tank up to the indicated level before switching the iron on. Select the appropriate temperature setting for the fabric you intend to iron and allow the iron to reach operating temperature. For horizontal ironing, glide the stainless steel soleplate smoothly over the fabric using moderate pressure. For vertical steaming, hold the iron upright at a short distance from the garment and activate the steam function to remove wrinkles. Empty any remaining water after use and store the iron in a dry place.

What to consider before purchase

• Water tank capacity is 0.25 L — suitable for shorter sessions or smaller loads
• Designed for household use rather than professional continuous operation
• Check that a 2 m cord length fits your ironing area layout
• Stainless steel soleplate provides durability and smooth gliding

Usage recommendations

Use distilled or demineralised water if your tap water is hard to reduce scale buildup. Start ironing at a lower temperature setting and increase as needed for delicate fabrics. For best results, move the iron in slow, even strokes and use the vertical steam function for hanging garments and curtains to avoid re-ironing.
